Did you know, constipation can affect your lungs?

In Traditional Chinese Medicine the lungs and large intestine are paired together and correspond to the Metal element.

The large intestine descends and helps us let go of all waste matter physically and emotionally. In turn, letting go gives space for the lungs to take in the breath of life and find new inspirations.

Getting enough fiber in our diets is essential to protect the lungs and large intestine and to promote healthy bowels. Breathwork and exercise also stimulate the lungs and bowels.
